About the Author

Beth Schluter was born as Bethan Frances Jones, in Chester, North Wales, in the United Kingdom and lived in the beautiful small town of Bala, North Wales until she went to College in the early seventies. Having qualified as a Late Primary teacher of Art, Music and Languages at Newcastle-upon-Tyne Polytechnic, Beth went on to teach in Harrow, London, following her love of the Arts and Literature. In Harrow, she married and had a daughter, Helena, who inherited her mother's love of Literature. Beth had always dreamt of writing a novel, since she was sixteen, when she attempted to give it a try. But exams and work gave her little opportunity over the years, to complete her project, and she only resumed her passion when she received early retirement in 2012. Beth's love of everything Science-Fiction led her to begin writing novels in this genre. Indeed, she had so many ideas that her debut novel became the first part of a trilogy, with books two and three being written in quick succession behind the first, The Hub. Having enjoyed her first experience of writing, Beth hardly stopped to breathe, and by the end of 2014, she had written nine novels, two of which were children's Fantasy novels! She continues to enjoy writing, embarking on both children's and adults' novels in Science Fiction and Fantasy genres. If her debut novel's reviews are anything to go by, "an exciting and evocative novel. The danger feels tangible.."."the characters are brilliantly written, feeling completely real.." (Essex Life Magazine), then the reader should be in for a real treat.
